Principles in Goal-Setting

1. Visualize your goal

2. Belief

3. Define your goals

4. Break your goal into workable steps

5. Set a time limit on attaining your goal

6. Write your goal down

7. Verbally share your goals with others

8. Develop a plan of action

9. Approach your goal with positive expectancy

10. Develop self-motivation and self-discipline

Remember, no big accomplishment happens all at once. Life itself is a series of individual incidents and projects. To go through life successfully means setting and achieving goals – one after the other – each a little better than the former. Always strive to do “better than your best” and I will celebrate you as the “star” that you are . . . at the top!

Secrets of Selecting a Foundation

One of the biggest concerns that I come across is how to find a foundation that is right for you. There are many different kinds on the market and each one has it’s benefits for the user. The first and in my opinion is consideration in selecting a foundation is your skin type. Are you dry , normal, combination to oily and/or blemish prone? Once you have settled into your favorite type or types of foundation, then the shade selection comes next. I will go over each type of foundation and who is best suited to use it.

1. Liquid Foundation- this comes in medium coverage and full coverage. If your skin is normal to dry then the full coverage will work best for you. If you have combination to oily and/or blemish prone skin the medium coverage is an option for you. Depending on your skin, it may not be the best option for you.
2. Creme foundation- This is more of a traditional foundation in a compact that is designed for lots of coverage and protection from the elements. It is best only for extremely dry skin types.
3. Cream to powder foundation- This product goes on creamy and dries quickly to a powder. The coverage is not the best and I don’t recommend it for anyone with combination skin.
4. Mineral foundation- This is the latest trend because it is so good for your skin and it can provide buildable coverage for all ages and skin types. (it is my personal favorite) The down side is you may need to touch up later in the day because it doesn’t wear as well as liquid, but I will never go back to liquid. It comes with a special brush that is necessary for the best application.
5. Mineral pressed powder- this has slightly less coverage than the regular Mineral powder, but it is great to carry in your purse for touch up. Our new compact is very purse friendly and it has room for your favorite lipstick as well.
6. Tinted moisturizer with spf 20. This is great for a quick application with protection from the sun. I use this everyday that I am planning on spending some time outdoors.
